Stealth PLA-PEG Nanoparticles as Protein Carriers for Nasal Administration
Abstract
Purpose The aim of the study was to encapsulate a model protein antigen, tetanus toxoid (TT), within hydrophobic (PLA) and surface hydrophilic (PLA-PEG) nanoparticles and to evaluate the potential of these colloidal carriers for the transport of proteins through the nasal mucosa. Methods TT-loaded nanoparticles, prepared by a modified water-in-oil-in-water solvent evaporation technique, were characterized in their size, zeta potential and hydrophobicity. Nanoparticles were also assayed in vitro for their ability to deliver active antigen for extended periods of time. Finally, 125I-TT-loaded nanoparticles were administered intranasally to rats and the amount of radioactivity recovered in the blood compartment, lymph nodes and other relevant tissues was monitored for up to 48 h. Results PLA and PLA-PEG nanoparticles had a similar particle size (137-156 nm) and negative surface charge, but differed in their surface hydrophobicity: PLA were more hydrophobic than PLA-PEG nanoparticles. PLA-PEG nanoparticles, especially those containing gelatine as an stabilizer, provided extended delivery of the active protein. The transport of the radiolabeled protein through the rat nasal mucosa was highly affected by the surface properties of the nanoparticles: PLA-PEG nanoparticles led to a much greater penetration of TT into the blood circulation and the lymph nodes than PLA nanoparticles. Furthermore, after administration of 125I-TT-loaded PLA-PEG nanoparticles, it was found that a high amou…

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
